Unfortunately, it’s a matter of NC being made up of largely left-leaning urban areas that are separated by wide swaths of largely right-leaning rural areas.
I suspect that the vast majority of us who were against HB2 from the beginning didn’t vote for McCrory in the first place. It’s possible, however, that too many of us didn’t bother to show up to vote at all.
The good news (if there can be said to be such regarding this issue) is that the furor over HB2 and its fallout has done much to stir up voters, hopefully including many who might have sat out this coming election. There is no lack of noise being made over this in our state. I just hope we can mobilize in numbers big enough to oust McCrory and his McCronies and turn things around.
